Setting Up System Registry › Validate Systems

Validate Systems

After you have created your systems, validate that they exist. You cannot validate staging systems.

Note: Validate your non-sysplex systems first, and then your sysplex or shared DASD cluster systems.

Follow these steps:

1. Click the System Registry tab, and select Non-Sysplex Systems, Sysplexes, or Shared DASD Clusters from the tree on the left side.

   Note: Even though you cannot validate staging systems, create and validate a system registry entry for the CA CSM driving system of the staging system.

   Information about the systems that you selected appears on the right side.

2. Select the system that you want to validate and, from the Actions drop-down list, select Validate.

   A dialog that shows the progress of the task opens. When the task completes, you can click Show Results on the Progress tab to close this dialog. The task output browser opens and you can view the action details. Click Close to close the task output browser.

   Note: While a task is in progress, you can perform other work. You can click Hide to exit the dialog and view the task status later on the Tasks tab.

3. (Optional) If the validation is in error, review the message log, update your system registry-entered information, and validate again.

   You are now ready to deploy your products to this system.
